This routine, announced inspection was conducted by the resident inspector.; onsite, in the areas of monthly surveillance observations, monthly maintenance observation, operational safety verification, engineered safety features system walkdown, onsite followup of events and subsequent written reports, design, design changes and modifica-tions and other areas.

Results:

The licensee was in the forty-fif th day uf the outage as of October 31, 1988, and are within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of the schedule. Appar-ently the efforts spent on scheduling before the outage have contri-buted to the ability of staying on schedule at this time.

Of over 300 environmental qualification tasks scheduled during the outage, 133 have been completed.

Over 11,000 tasks were scheduled and approximately 6,000 have been completed SG ecidy current testing has been completed with on going plugging operations and tube pulling completed.

Outage radioactivity exposure has been controlled very well with the large amount of steam generator work taking place. The exposure is at 317 person-rems.

Emergency DG "A" wo k was slow due to leaking water jacket seals.

However, the diesel was operational on time.

Diesel Generctor "B",

"B" train work such as SW, CCS, reactor building spray pump and sump suction, and "B" train RHRS work is in progress. Critical path work on the schedule centers around "B" train work and reloading of fuel that began October 30, 1988.

Within the areas inspected, no violations or deviations were identi-fied.

'

were present in the testing location, followed step by step during performance, and completion of steps was documented by marking check off blocks as required.

Independent verification was properly performed in accordance with instructions.

Pretest activities included reviewing procedures prior to start, selecting and acquiring proper measuring and test equipment, obtaining perm'ssion from the shift supervisor or his designee, and a discussion of the test and its effect on the plant was held.

Posttest activities included the review of the completed proce-dures by the test performers for completoness and accuracy.

The shift supervisor / supervising operator reviewed the test fo completion and the final group supervisor reviewed the procedure for completeness.

Tests were suspended when required in order to satisfy and/or correct test deficiency or procedural deficiency.

Performance of test procedures appeared to be adequate.

No violations or deviations were identified.

3.

Monthly Maintenance Observation (62703)

The inspectors observed maintenance activities of safety related systems and components to ascertain that these activities were conducted in accordance with approved procedures, TS and appropriate industry codes and standards.

The inspectors also determined that the procedures used were adequate to control the activity, and that these activities were accom-plished by qualified personnel.

The inspectors independently verified that equipment was properly tested before being returned to service.

Additionally, the inspectors reviewed several outstarding job orders to determine that the licensee was giving priority to safety related mainten-ance and not developing a backlog which might affect a given syston's performance.
